Description
Written in Aklo, this copy of the Pnakotic Manuscripts focuses on magical portals, teleportation, and conjuration magic in general. The book itself is relatively large, weighing 10 pounds and consisting of about 500 pages of thin parchment. The cover bears a large inset crystal (said to aid in concentration during the casting of complex conjuration magic) and a series of metal insect-like clasps along the edges lock down and keep the book from being opened (DC 25 intelligence check or Disable Device)
Once read, the Pnakotic Manuscripts grant a +4 bonus on all Knowledge checks made pertaining to conjuration magic or the gods and magic of the Old Cults. In addition, the book functions as a spellbook and contains the following arcane spells: gate, greater teleport, greater planar binding, interplanetary teleport, lesser planar binding, planar binding, plane shift, teleport, teleport object, and teleportation circle.
